The optimist in me hopes that this just means the stage is set for Pietersen in his 100th test to lead the greatest run chase of all time. The realist in me says we're ****ed.
Well it didn't go well. Some of the comments that have been made have been very low. If Clarke had said to me what he said Jimmy Anderson I'd wrapped the bat around his head. Best wishes to Trott. Its horrible condition. I'd like to see Root at 3 and Ballance come in at 6. I'd also like Bresnan to come in for Tremlett.
How the **** is Root still in the team? Apart from 2 good innings when there was no pressure on him in the last series he's been abysmal. Take those two knocks away and he averages about ten against the Aussies. He's just not good enough.
They've been relying on the bowlers to get them out the **** for too long now. I mean, what a **** shot that was by Pieterson to give his wicket away. What the **** is Gooch doing with them? Bin him
KP needs to wind his neck in. The age old excuse that his arrogance makes him the player he is is really start to test my patience. Two catchers set for him and instead of playing the field accordingly his ego takes over and he tries to show who's boss and failed. If we can get to lunch with the loss of two wickets in the session it wouldn't have been a disastrous morning.
****ing unbelievable. As soon as I hit the button to send that post the wicket falls. We're ****ed and will get beaten by an innings and then some in this test.
Is it just me or is the Australian team jam packed with bell ends? I know Anderson and Swann can be mouthey but these Aussies are something else. I hope Stokes wraps his bat around Haddins arrogant head.
Not sure what our batsmen are doing. They just don't look like they want to be there. We are going to get whitewashed at this rate
